I just a couple weeks Pre-Op, Once sleeved was wondering if people with hypothyroidism share similar results with weight loss or is it slower?

Well I guess I can cross that concern off my list, THAMKS ALL!

My surgery date is 2/28, so its coming very fast. I'm really looking forward to it and I am really not nervous at all, RATHER my biggest fear is once I am sleeved that I will still have the same very strong hunger drive and will want to eat like I use to and I will have to fight that off constantly. I understand the surgery is just a tool and that I need to do my part and eat healthy, I get that however if it was so easy all the diets I have been on would of worked better for me. I'm counting (praying) that my hunger drive is much less. Can anyone ease my mind or am I doomed??

BIG HELP. thanks ALL!

The count down is one. 1 week to pre-diet. Started getting everything on my list together. Like most, excited and nervous at the time. Question; how many of you told people outside of your very inner circle what you were doing? I have only told my Wife, Son and Mom. Even my Dad does not know yet. Not good at keeping secrets lol) I also told my long time very close friend that I was thinking about it but have not told he I have confirmed. I value his opinion and he was definitely leaning towards me not doing it. I am doing the right thing here by going through with it right??

Thanks Ladies, you replies provide me with much needed support. I am not going to Lie, my planned response when asked about my weight will be " I'm eating much less these days" Hopefully that will suffice! Best of luck to you all!

20 Days and counting for me, BEST OF LUCK!

2/28 is my date, 2/5 is my last weight management, cardiac clearance and Pulmonary Functions test. I will find out my Pre-Op then as well as pre-diet.

Congrats , I'm 2/28
